Quinte

[RangerGuy]

Well,

 

Me and my pooch went to Quinte Saturday. Launched at 6:15am.... I was surprised that nobody was at the ramp. Not very many boats out at all. I started the day by tearing my transducer cable in 1/2 launching the boat on a piece of wood that I thought was floating in the water. So I was fishing blind all day.

 

Not much cloud cover or wind all day but still managed 5 fish 12,18,20,24,27 inches.. Funny each fish came from a different spot. I could not find more than one fish in each area LOL! I think maybe I wasn't fishing shallow enough these fish all came in 20 to 35' range.

 

So they weren't jumping in the boat but I've only fished Quinte a handfull of times so I'm please

Sounds like a pretty good day on the water. Congrats but too bad about the transducer cable.

I was at Quinte fri,sat, and sunday. The fishing was pretty slow for the most part. We only caught 16 for the trip between 4 of us, so sounds like you did pretty well! Most of our fish were from the 20-25 foot range as well though. A couple early morning eyes were a feeding off a hump at around 14 feet but that bite died pretty quick.

Too bad about the transducer but I guess it could have been worse. At least you caught some fish.

Thanks for the report.

Thanks guys,

 

I haven't made a fishing post in a long time. It's good to be back Lots of new faces here LOL!

 

 

I forgot to mention that my new 24 volt Terrova was just awesome! I used it all day basically anytime I trolled Saturday.. it moves my boat at 3mph at full speed. I was trolling with it between .5 - 1.5 mph and for positioning while casting . It only used 1 bar out of 4 on the battery meter AMAZING!.

So how much would your old, (my new) motor have used?

Great pics Man and his dog,, Nothing better than that fishing

Hey man you did well ,you still put some nice eyes in the boat !!!! too bad about the transducer...cheers

[RangerGuy]

The old motor for general purpose casting positioning for a long day would probably use 1/2 my battery power but if I try to troll with it all day "constant on" like I did Saturday I'd have to charge them up Saturday night if I planned on fishing all Sunday.

Hey Ranger Guy, excellent choice for a fishing partner. I live in the Quinte region, and was in the opener tourney. I caught a 2lb and a 7.7 on Saturday morning, and 4.5 on Sunday. I went out this past Sunday, and only had one strike before the winds got too high, but met a couple of guys who had 2 roughly 4lb fish, they were catching them on the weighted rubber minnow baits
